I am using "remember" as well as "org-capture", meaning that I have
them both setup and working, but there are two things that I'm not
sure about. This is my "remember setup" -

With everything that I "remember" it shows it as, example only -

Ha! Well, I don't abuse the ice-cold tone for emails and other electronic ways of communication, switching is
easy. And certainly some people may not get it but the Latin phrase "Pax et bonum" works as a "yours truly" or
a "Good Bye!".
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

i.e. headline before the date. How do I get it the other way round
please, meaning "date - headline"?

Also you close the entry by "C-c C-c" which, in my case, calls
"Tags" again. How can I get it working right in this case please?

Thanks
Sharon.
